Imagine... A world with love.

How could someone else's happiness disrupt yours?

Imagine... A world with love.

Everyone always talks about standing up for what they believe in and wanting to be happy, but there are so many things in the world that stop it from being like that. As a writer, I have heard that I need to stay up on the latest of all. But I personally hate to read the paper or watch the news because all you will ever see is negative or horrible things that happen.

Everyone in this world wants the same thing. They want to live their life to their expectations, be happy and enjoy life with the ones they love. For some reason, some people think that if one set of people are happy, it will stop them from having it. How? If

How does one person's happiness stop someone else from being happy?

That question has NO answer. Not really. Imagine if people were only concerned with themselves. Imagine if laws were made to help people and not to allow or ban a specific set of people's life.

Imagine if we stop putting definitions of beauty, wealth, and happiness. It's ridiculous how many people equate happiness and wealth to money. And define beauty as a set boxed in type. These are the things that cause some people to be depressed because they cannot live up to certain standards, while others are trolled for not living up to them.

It's okay to be original, it's okay to be different. Imagine a world where we all wore what made us feel comfortable with no judgment (I'm sure I would be wearing the same things, I'm already that person). But imagine how many feet would be saved from bunions and ankles saved from being twisted. (I am that girl that used to fall on my ankle in heels.)

So I say all this to say...

Be you, no one can be a better you than you. And those who troll others because of their insecurities or just to be mean, find some joy in your life. Find out why you are miserable and fix it. Stop talking down on someone simply because it's something you cannot understand or choose not to. Imagine a world that was based on love and not hate. Helping build others up instead of tearing people down. I think the world would be a way better and healthier place.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
